Inhaltsangabe

Memory is a predator, and the bayou remembers everything.

When Hurricane Katrina devastates New Orleans, artist Christopher DuVall believes he’s lost everything. He hasn’t. Something far older—and far more dangerous—has been waiting for him back home.

With nowhere else to go, he returns to the place he swore he'd never see again: the house where his estranged mother still lives, and where the shadow of an unspeakable tragedy lingers—the mysterious deaths of his six-year-old sister Joan and his father at their remote cabin on Dorcheat Bayou.

As long-buried secrets churn to the surface, Christopher is forced to confront not only the truth of that night, but the role he may have played in it.

Set against the sweltering Louisiana summer, steeped in grief, guilt, and ghosts, Dorcheat is a Southern Gothic tale of family reckoning and the corrosive weight of memory.
